The Tropical Studio is a very cozy apartment in the lower floor of a large, Andalusian country house surrounded by 3,000 square meters of biologically certified land with many oranges, olive, and other southern fruit trees, a large garden with playground, a child-safe pool, and green lawns in the middle of nature.

The studio is recently renovated and is characterized by its refined Andalucian style, its traditional tile floor and bright spaces. There is a curtain which could separate the bedroom/desk area and the living room. The windows give great views of the garden and the private terrace. The bathroom as well as the kitchen area are totally new and fully equipped. Everything is tastefully decorated and the studio contains all you could need (sharp kitchen knives, large red wine glasses, quality mattresses, bed linens and towels) to guarantee a relaxing holiday.

The shared swimming pool (9x4m plus a shallow part) and the lawn area surrounding it are fenced, completely childproof. The lush garden is very child-friendly with a water slide, a playground, a small soccer pitch with a goal and a giant tire swing.

The property is only 1km away from town (10-15 minutes walking distance) and still provides with all the quietness and tranquillity of pure nature to make your holiday as pleasant and relaxing as possible.

Oliver's place is In a peaceful, rural location with absolutely amazing views. The accommodation is spacious, clean and with the most comfortable bed. We stayed for two nights but have been happy to spend our whole holiday there. We did get lost finding the property and the sat nav got us to the main town and then decided not to assist any further but Oliver came to our rescue, my advice if he offers to meet you, accept. Overall one of the best places we have stayed on our trip to Spain.

Beautiful studio apartment in wonderful panoramic location, just few minutes driving from Orgiva. The amenities such as the swimming pool and the sauna really made a difference on a day when weather was not generous. A bottle of excellent local wine was offered by the BnB at our check in. In the apartment we found a book with precious informations about activities and places to visit in the surrounding.

I came across the Alpujarras by chance during my journey through Spain in the mid 80's. This was about the same time as the famous book writer Chris Stewart arrived into the area. Years later he published his bestseller ‘Driving Over Lemons: An Optimist in Andalucia (The Lemons Trilogy)’ where he tells all these funny tales and amazing experiences he had in this very region. I also discovered the same sort of authentic unspoiled paradise as he did. Back then, south of Granada was very different to what it is now. The area was impoverished, there were not many cars around but lots of donkeys instead, TV was a novelty and people actually 'lived' in the bars. There was no VAT tax yet and no motorway for hundreds of miles. Granada was a day journey away and northern Europe a different planet. I was in heaven. I’ve been living in this area for almost 30 years and my children were born and grew up here. I absolutely love this region. Since then, I´ve been exploring the many things this area has to offer: hiking, skiing, cycling, snorkeling, biking, cooking, climbing and partying, of course. It´s my home and it feels like paradise!
